Four Cities Exhibition – Obey Shepard Fairey
The Obey Clothing propaganda message continues to gain momentum in the UK. Most recently with the ‘Four Cities’ exhibition hosted by Black Rat Projects which “will reflect on the work of four artists whose experience of urbanity propelled them to create within their environment in similar ways. With new works by represented artist Swoon, and secondary market works sourced from Os Gemeos, Banksy and Shepard Fairey, BRP will map the parameters of the street art movement across continents through the voices that emerged simultaneously as the strongest of their respective city scenes.”
